Dubai retail cooperative says strategic stocks remain strong and supply systems are operating normally
Dubai, UAE: Dubai-based retail cooperative Union Coop has confirmed that its supply chains remain stable and that strategic stocks of essential goods and consumer products are sufficient to meet demand for extended periods. The cooperative said its food supply system continues to operate normally, ensuring uninterrupted product availability across its stores and online platforms.
Union Coop stated that its distribution and logistics operations are progressing according to approved plans, supported by close coordination with both federal and local authorities. These efforts are designed to maintain a steady flow of products to the market and ensure that customers can access essential goods without disruption.
The cooperative also highlighted its integrated inventory and supply chain management system, which relies on proactive planning and ongoing monitoring of market trends and consumer demand. Through continuous coordination with suppliers and supply partners, the organisation aims to maintain product availability even during changing market conditions.
Mohamed Al Hashemi, CEO of Union Coop, said the UAE’s food security remains a top priority, emphasising that the cooperative’s strategic stock levels are stable while supply chains are functioning efficiently. He added that the organisation works closely with partners and government authorities to ensure the continuous availability of essential products.
Union Coop also noted that initiatives such as its Locked Prices programme and promotional campaigns are designed to support price stability and provide value to consumers. These efforts aim to maintain affordability while ensuring that basic food items remain accessible to residents across Dubai.
The cooperative further underscored the importance of local production as a key component of the country’s food security framework. By strengthening partnerships with domestic producers and expanding the presence of locally produced goods in its stores, Union Coop aims to support the national economy while enhancing supply chain resilience.
Founded in Dubai in 1982, Union Coop has grown into one of the largest consumer cooperatives in the UAE, operating multiple hypermarkets and retail facilities across the emirate while playing an important role in maintaining stable consumer markets.
